Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Mar 11, 2019 8:23 pm Hello everyone, My builder is charging me $1,349 for the alarm system. I don’t know how many censors he will install. I am building a single story 24 square house in western suburb of Melbourne. Is the builder’s price reasonable or should I get it installed from electrician after the handover? If anyone has got the alarm system, can please advise how much did it cost to install through your own electrician. Thank you Re: Should I install the alarm system? 3Mar 12, 2019 8:31 am You should also be looking at the features (remote access via app on smartphone, pet friendly sensors, zone settings, back to base etc.). From my perspective "back to base" is most important. Will the system installed by builder acceptable for back-to-base monitoring by leading providers like ADT, NRMA ? That's a fantastic result! Happy you got it sorted out. cheers Simeon 6 7525 Once you know the basics, the rest is easy.
